The reason is none other than her father, who despite being wealthy and having a doctors note (which he couldnt read), was left stunned after spending ten dollars.
Nowadays, everything is just a few cents or a few dimes, when have you ever heard of ten dollars?
Ten bucks is a big deal for her, I reckon her old man still hasnt seen what a big deal looks like to this day!
Hurry over and discuss with her mother.
The old lady heard that it took only half a days work to spend ten dollars, and her voice suddenly rose by eight degrees.
"What? Ten yuan? Has she been eating ginseng or drinking fairy water? She dares to ask for ten yuan in just half a day? Why dont they go rob instead?"
The female doctor was used to seeing such a rascal and patiently explained it to her.
"Old lady, cant you be reasonable? From the time your daughter-in-law was admitted to the hospital until she gave birth, every single expense is accounted for,"
"The hospital is a public institution, cant it take advantage of you?"
"If you continue to be so stubborn and unyielding, then fine. Lets go to the commune or the public security bureau and let them handle it for us. What do you think?"
What kind of police has this old lady ever seen in her life?
Even people from the commune arent someone she can see whenever she wants.
The doctors threat revealed the rustic mans timid and inexperienced nature.
But it was just a momentary thing, shattered by the reality of ten dollars.
"But we dont have money, our family has more than just a few mouths to feed, there are over ten of us"
"Not to mention these ten yuan, even the one yuan deposit we paid when we were hospitalized was borrowed by us?"
"Cant you be a little more generous? Isnt the hospital supposed to be a place that saves people from suffering and hardship? Cant you give us a bit of a discount? Even five yuan would do!"
The doctor was stunned, probably because he had been a doctor for so long and had never seen anyone come to the hospital to haggle over prices.
You said you could just knock off the decimal places and split it in half, did you really think the hospital was a charity?
Not to mention buying things outside, no tickets and no money cant be bought.
Even if you have the money and the ticket, it still depends on whether the other person is willing to sell it to you.
No matter how much money you have, you cant buy it if they are unwilling to sell.
Haggling?
Go ahead and dream!
But this old lady also didnt know where she popped out from, and actually dared to run to the hospital to haggle over prices?
Isnt this abnormal?
Yeah, even Lian Xuan thinks this old lady is a bit too fanciful!
This was too much for the doctor, who immediately turned cold and lost his patience. He pushed her away with a look of annoyance and said:
"Sorry, Im just a doctor, cant be in charge of this, if you want to haggle over prices go ahead, I wont stop you."
He walked two steps and suddenly thought of something, then turned around abruptly.
"Oh, by the way, old lady, dont think that just because of this ten yuan you can get away with making a fake receipt,"
"Let me tell you, when I was hospitalized, it was your unit that issued the introduction letter."
"With this letter of introduction, even if you flee to the ends of the earth, youll still have to pay us back at the hospitals financial office."
"If things go wrong, well have to deal with the police too, whats the point of that?"
The doctor left with a cold smile, and the old lady stood still, her face embarrassed.
It seems that they have been seen through by the doctors discerning eye.
Hmph, how dare you!
Lian Xuan didnt have the energy to worry about them now, she wanted to sleep, but the old ladys loud voice always pulled her back to reality.
She is still dizzy and groggy until now.
She didnt, her mother finally woke up with a low cry under her grandmothers scream.
